Part of e.l.f.’s international expansion strategy is partnering with leading global retailers and distributors who have the scale to make a strong and immediate impact and align with e.l.f.’s vision of positivity, inclusivity and accessibility. e.l.f. also engages with its community before entering a market – driving consumer demand and excitement.
